Ok so, due to being ignored by the bureaus, i have sent my 3rd letter to all 3 bureaus warning them that i will be sending a formal complaint to the FTC, however i have never gotten this far. Can someone please assist me in writing a letter to the FTC about this.

I am a victim of identity theft, and had filed a report with local police, also the FTC. I requested Experian block a fraudulent account, and provided them with copies of the identity theft reports to support the request. They removed the fraudulent account within a few days of doing this. I had disputed the same fraudulent account with Equifax, and attached identity theft reports as supporting documentation. For 3 weeks after Experian blocked the account, the date reported on this same account was updated 4 times on Equifax.
11/11/2016 I requested Experian remove the fraudulent account due to identity theft
11/17/2016 Experian report showed account was deleted
12/1/2016, on Equifax fraudulent account/debt showed date reported 11/23/2016
12/3/2016, on Equifax fraudulent account/debt showed date reported 11/02/2016
So the date reported went backwards. How does this happen?
12/04/2016, on Equifax fraudulent account/debt showed date reported 12/03/2016
12/07/2016, on Equifax fraudulent account/debt showed date reported 12/06/2016
On 12/5/2016 I filed a complaint with CFPB against the creditor that reported the fraudulent account (which they have never responded to), and 12/7/2016 I called the creditor because I was quite angry at this point. After the account was removed from Experian, my score had gone up 69 points, and it was obviously damaging my Equifax score significantly. I had been denied credit due to this account specifically (denial reason said high utilization/over credit limit, and this account was reported as charge off for more than the credit limit that was reported for the account, I had no other accounts that this was relevant to).
When I called this creditor the 1st time, they could not find the account in their system, and told me to call Equifax, so I did. Equifax then told me to call the creditor, so called them again. The creditor finally located the account, and admitted to me that they had received the police/identity theft report (Experian sent to them as a result of account being blocked) on 11/29/2016. So this account was updated 3 times on Equifax after they apparently received the identity theft/police report, and Experian had already blocked it as of 11/17/2016. Aside from all of this, the same creditor had reported conflicting information for the account between EX and EQ (payment dates, number of payments), so they obviously aren't concerned about complying with the law. What I'm trying to figure out is, who is at fault? And how does date reported go backwards in one case, unless it was done manually, then corrected the very next day? It almost looks like this was done intentionally. When the date went backwards, they corrected it on their own the next day, but I had not contacted them about it or bring to their attention. I know there are FCRA violations here, but I'm confused as to who is responsible for what. The police report totaled 73 pages for my case, and this has been a process from hell. I simply expected the creditors/credit bureaus to fulfill their obligations under the law, and that is really all identity theft victims have to rely on when recovering from the chaotic aftermath of this crime. Filing a police report only gives more credibility to a victim's claim, but they can't do much more than that. This is not about a lawsuit and getting paid, its about holding those accountable to the law that is there for these very reasons. Thank you in advance for any suggestions or advice.

I am an American-born expat living in Peru. All my personal debt is paid as agreed.
I am also the legal representative of an English Institute, which has a separate tax identification number. There are three partners. The business is not performing.
A few months ago, the business entered into a rental agreement. It has paid 3 months but cannot pay the remaining 3. The first two months I personally paid out of my own pocket. Since there are three partners, I want my partners to pay for the other 4 months (2 each), but they have declined to do so.
The landlord has said that if I do not pay the debt, said debt will be placed on my Equifax credit report and will prevent me from getting credit. I went today to Equifax, and the person there confirmed that this might indeed be so.
Since I am an American citizen, Equifax is an American corporation, the information is hosted on www.equifax.com, a U.S. domain name, and the information is often transmitted through the Internet, I believe that the matter is covered by the U.S. Constitution, which grants authority to Congress to regulate Interstate Commerce. In short, I believe that the Fair Credit Reporting Act is in full force and that it covers this matter.
I entered an Equifax portal to determine how to dispute negative information, assuming that derogatory information may be placed against me in the future. The portal asked for a 10-digit identification code. However, the credit report I have in hand from Equifax does not contain a 10-digit code. It contains a 15-digit operation number.
Any advice or information would be appreciated.

I recently filed my opening brief in the 9th circuit court of appeals because I once again got railroaded in kangaroo court (Phoenix federal court). The brief is posted at http://creditsuit.org and involves numerous FDCPA, FCRA and discovery issues. I worked on it for 2 weeks straight and bought the NCLC FCRA and FDCPA subscriptions, but just ran out of time and am still looking for case law on several issues for my reply brief.
1) The importance of Equifax's date of first delinquency (aka date of last activity or DLA).
My claim got dismissed because they argued that as per FCRA they could have reported 6 months longer and the judge decided that the additional 1 month was insignificant. However, my claims were NOT against Equifax for reporting too long, but against Midland / MCM because they verified the incorrect DLA and against Equifax for lack of procedures. Of course the more RECENT the DLA, the greater the damages as the most RECENT delinquency determines one's credit worthiness. It would be nice to have some cases about that.
I can't afford depositions and if remanded, will obviously do written discovery with Equifax, but they will claim no knowledge regarding creditors' underwriting practices and I can't pay for expert witnesses. So I need case law.
2) Midland WAIVED pre-judgment interest in state court, but verified the balances including the waived interest.
They argue that they can continue to report waived charges just like cases re debts dismissed for SOL. I agree with regards to SOL dismissal, but this is different. Many consumers negotiate settlements either pre suit or during litigation and I have NEVER seen a waived charge reported to a credit bureau.
Midland had added interest on the account PRIOR to its purchase of the account from the date of charge-off. Under AZ law they are entitled to 10% interest and it does not specify from what date, presumably from the date of purchase. HSBC had stopped charging interest when it charged off and the Midland documents all state the charge-off balance as the purchase balance.
Most credit card holders receive credits for late fees, interest etc. for one reason or another from the original creditor and I don't see why a subsequent purchaser of the account could add these charges.
The justice court dismissed my FDCPA counterclaim and denied my motion to amend because Midland stated in its motion for summary judgment that it WAIVED all pre-judgment interest. I haven't found any cases about that, but am aware that creditors can "assign" an account with the chargeoff balance + interest, but nothing of that sort was ever provided by Midland and I recently found a collection letter from a collector on behalf of MCM with a settlement offer based on the charge-off amount / purchase balance without any mention of interest.
So there are TWO issues, one regarding the WAIVED interest during the Midland litigation against me and the other regarding the legality of Midland adding pre-purchase interest when creditors such as HSBC and Chase chose to not charge interest after the charge-off and the account is sold with a BALANCE = to date of chargeoff .
How specific does a CRA dispute have to be?
The district court judge reasoned that my balance disputes were NOT specific enough and that I was supposed to provide the correct balance according to my calculations. I had checked the Equifax online dispute form option for "incorrect balance." Of course I argued that in my NUMEROUS court filings and discovery docs I had already provided Midland / MCM with the exact nature of the disputes and that it's not up to me to calculate the interest, but the judge didn't care.
I'll be doing a lot of research over the next couple months once I got caught up with planting etc., but greatly appreciate any relevant cases.

John Oliver skewers credit bureaus for false reporting of consumers' credit histories and failing to take proper measures to correct errors in this hilarious presentation.

Today I received requests from several companies on my CR requesting I validate accounts. Midland, Asset and PRA all 3 sent requests for Full Name, Full CC Number, Address (Current and past 10 years), approximate account opening dates, account balances, Last payment and date, and my employer name. NONE of them have judgments against me. GECRB did the same for two CCs that they claim I have/had. CAP1 did the same for 4 accounts they claim I had with them. NONE of these letters gave me any idea what they are talking about...no reference numbers or anything. I did recently do requests for verification with all 3 major CBs. Anyone seen this sort of thing before??

I have learned a lot in two days of browsing and I greatly appreciate all of the information here so far. I have one quick question. Midland Credit Management aka Midland Funding is on my credit with a suppsed debt to a bank. They initially said I owed $5,XXX and every month or so, that amount has increased to over five figures now. Anyway, I called TransUnion about something unrelated and they tell me over the phone that it's actually scheduled for deletion off my credit report NEXT MONTH. Such joy. One report says that the date of first deliquency is April 2008, another October 2008. Should I use this information to remind these two agencies that this needs to come off my report. I am keeping a copy of my report just in case Midland tries to reage the credit or changes the date somehow. Do you think I will be able to get this information from Equifax and/or Experian somehow? Thanks for reading!

OK, so I've been trying to clean up and rebuild my credit and while I'm working on DV and disputes, I get a secured credit card for $500. Thinking that I will have time to pay it off before it reports, I used $275 of it already (have had it less than a month). I got a notification from experian yesterday that stated my score dropped 23 points and the only change was this credit card was added (all info on both experian and equifax reported identical). The experian score monitoring is through the experian website, the equifax is the score watch through myfico. Today I get a notification from Score watch that my equifax jumped UP 55 (from 466 to 521) and the only change is this card which was reported EXACTLY the same way it was to Experian. So now that I know what day they report to the Bureaus (no info yet on TU), If I pay it down to about 8% do you think it will go up even more? The FICO simulator had shown that my score would go up to about 506 if I got a new credit card with a limit of $500, but (I know, it's just a simulator) it went to 521.

9 questions about credit scores you were too embarrassed to ask Imagine trying to lose a few pounds without ever stepping on the scale or trying to cut your cholesterol without ever getting it checked. Tens of millions of Americans are taking a similarly blind approach to their money. Everyone wants their finances to be in good shape, but less than half of all Americans even know their credit score. That's not good — a bad credit score can mean a high-interest loan that costs you thousands and thousands of dollars over the course of a lifetime. But it's not just laziness. Private companies own the math behind calculating credit scores, so often you can't get your score without paying for it (and there's no way you can calculate it on your own). The scoring system doesn't always make sense, either — even seemingly responsible decisions can dock your score. To learn more, read our nine questions about what goes into a credit score.

One of my charge off accounts as reported by the OC years ago.It still sits with the OC- It went on my credit report a few years ago- Now I see a new reporting date of a recent date within 30 days. I think I disputed this a long time ago and it was written off by OC- not sure have to check-
The agent at Equifax told me that this means that they just looked at it as nothing else has changed.
Is that a normal I asked for them to place a new reposted date on it. The old date was 3 years ago and now it just looks like they just reported it again.
this is how it shows
Date of Last Activity: N/A
this field Date Major Delinquency First Reported: is blank
should I do anything? Seems like when you start to dispute, they remember the debt and then you get sued-

So hello to everyone. I have used a couple of different credit repair services in the past. Had great luck with the first one years ago, not so much luck with the last one. They didn't do much at all over the course of almost a year, so I cancelled. I've decided to do it myself this time. I have the time and I've done a TON of reading on credit repair thanks to credit info center. Now, I have a couple of things I can't find answers on and I'm hoping you can help me. The one I'm looking at now is a Charge off from Capital One on my Equifax CR. The odd part is, in the 81 month payment history, every month is marked "paid" or "paid as agreed" and the account is closed with a $0 balance, but the status is still marked as 'charge off". Activity designator is marked as: Transfer/sold..it's also got a date of first delinquency. I'm completely confused by this...how can it be marked as paid as agreed in the 81 month payment history and still be marked as negative credit as well? I don't even know what to request of the CRA at this point for this line item.

I am in a dispute with one of the three major credit bureaus. In my research for case law and supporting documentation for what I believe are numerous FCRA violations, I came across this very helpful report from the National Consumer Law Center entitled: "Automated Injustice: How A Mechanized Dispute System Frustrates Consumers Seeking To Fix Errors In Their Credit Reports." The report breaks down the process by which Experian, Equifax and TransUnion handles consumer disputes for investigation or re-investigation, how and where they outsource the process to, the automated systems involved, non compliance issues with the FCRA, how banks largely parrot the credit bureaus poor process with a similar if not identical process thereby gaming a broken system, numerous case law examples, deposition testimony, and Congressional testimony that support the report's conclusions. I thought I would post and hope it provides useful info for others. Please see: http://www.nclc.org/images/pdf/pr-reports/report-automated_injustice.pdf Also see: www.consumerlaw.org Comments and thoughts are most welcome!

Today I got back the results from my latest dispute from equifax: YES! But NO! I look below at the complete updated report, and see that the same account # is now again in my report with "Item As Of Date Reported" = today, same date as the results. Except now it is being reported under "Midland Funding LLC". By the way, the account is paid in full, $0 balance. I still have another TL with Midland, are they just trying to strongarm me into calling them or paying the other account? Is this legal what they have done? I do keep copies of every report I pull direct from all 3 CRAs and copies of every dispute results.

Hi, I'm been doing a little reading on this but I'm still unsure as to how to go about this, so I'm hoping someone here can help me. A few months ago, I pulled up my credit report and realized there were two entries on it from a certain telephone company. I disputed the entries with all three credit bureaus; they all came back verified. I then called the telephone company, and was told that these accounts were 'at a zero balance' and that they did not have any original records on them. I did get the representative's name, customer ID, and date/time of call (I take good notes! lol), so her statements should be verifiable. I'm planning on writing a 623 letter, but I'm unsure if I send it to the CA (as if they'd assist me anyhow) or if I send it to the legal department of the telephone company. From what I've read, I would send my 623 to the legal department of the telephone company, but I'm unsure of what to do. If I was supposed to, in fact, send the 623 to the legal department of the telephone company, what does the telephone company do next? Contact the CA's and tell them to remove the entry from my CR? How does all of this work? Thank you SO much for reading this I appreciate your help!

I have a collection agency reporting an alleged debt on my credit report. This has been reporting by them for a couple of years. Yesterday I received a credit alert that new potentially derogatory information has posted to my credit file. When I looked at my credit report the new information was the same alleged account that the colllecction agency had already been reporting. Will this new reporting affect my credit score? Can a collection agency re- report the same infformation?
